Beyond early: Decision support for improved typhoon warning systems

2015

International audience; Warnings can help prevent damage and harm if they are issued timely and provide information that help responders and population to adequately prepare for the disaster to come. Today, there are many indicator and sensor systems that are designed to reduce disaster risks, or issue early warnings. In this paper we analyze the different systems in the light of the initial decisions that need to be made in the response to sudden onset disasters. We outline challenges of current practices and methods, and provide an agenda for future research.To illustrate our approach, we present a case study of Typhoon Haiyan. Although meteorological services had issued warnings; relief …

MVC Frameworks in Web Development

2012

With the increased demand of complex, well-scalable and maintainable web applications, the MVC architecture is increasing in popularity and frameworks (whether they utilize the MVC architecture or not) are quickly becoming de facto –standard in web development. This Bachelor’s Thesis introduces the use of MVC architecture in web development and how several web application frameworks make use of it. This research introduces the concepts of both the MVC architecture and web application frameworks but does not go into the basics of web development. Three examples of web application frameworks that utilize the MVC architecture are introduced. Due to the constraints provided by the size of this …

Towards a Contingency Framework for Engineering an Enterprise Architecture Planning Method

2007

Enterprise architecture (EA) has a key role in managing and relating business strategies and processes, information systems, and IC technologies. EA planning devises an EA plan with development steps to make necessary enhancements to the current state of the affairs in EA. Accomplishing EA planning in a systematic and efficient manner requires the availability of frameworks and methods suitable to the situation at hand. The selection and adaptation of these methodical artifacts for the use of EA planning is often quite challenging in practice. We argue that the contingency approach can help in these activities of method engineering (ME), and present a contingency framework (named here EACon…

Cadmium Metal–Organic Frameworks Based on Ditopic Triazamacrocyclic Linkers: Unusual Structural Features and Selective CO 2 Capture

2017

International audience; Two three-dimensional cadmium metal organic frameworks with general formula [Cd-2(L-1)(H2O)(3)](NO3)(0.7)(HCOO)(0.2)Br-0.1 (Cd2L1, L-1 = 1,4,7-tris(4-carboxybenzy1)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Cd(HL2)(H2O)(2) (CdL2, L-2 = 1,4,7-tris(3-(4-benzoate)prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1,4,7-triazacydononane) based on 1,4,7-triazacyclononane N-functionalized by different arylcarboxylic acids were prepared under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis and porosity measurements. The crystal structure of Cd2L1 reveals a cationic net with a bcs topology,. and nodes are constituted by dinuclear cadmium complexes, in which each cadmium atom adopts a hexacoordin…

Biodegradable Metal-Organic Framework-Based Microrobots (MOFBOTs).

2020

Microrobots and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been identified as promising carriers for drug delivery applications. While clinical applications of microrobots are limited by their low drug loading efficiencies and the poor degradability of the materials used for their fabrication, MOFs lack motility and targeted drug delivery capabilities. The combination of these two fields marks the beginning of a new era; MOF‐based small‐scale robots (MOFBOTs) for biomedical applications. Yet, biodegradability is a major hurdle in the field of micro‐ and nanoswimmers including small‐scale robots. Here, a highly integrated MOFBOT that is able to realize magnetic locomotion, drug delivery, and selec…
